Health officials say people who were born between 1957 and 1968 may need additional protection from the measles, even if you were vaccinated at birth. The South Carolina Department of Public Health reported 12 new measles cases as of Tuesday, Feb. 17, bringing the total outbreak count to 962. There are currently 127 people in quarantine and eight in isolation. The full report can be read here. Vaccination is being emphasized as the most effective defense against the measles. Vaccines are available through many primary care offices, pharmacies and state department locations.
